Ok. After I read about the Michelle Malkin test at Dean's World, I had to take it myself.
1. I have never voted for a Democrat in my life.
- I voted every election John Glenn (D) of Ohio.
2. I think my taxes are too high.
- Hell yes!!! (+5)
3. I supported Bill Clinton's impeachment.
- No. That is: yes he lied under oath, but no, I considered that to be entrapment. Starr had no business interrogating the President about that, considering he was tasked with investigating Whitewater.
4. I voted for President Bush in 2000.
- Damn skimpy. (+5)
5. I am a gun owner.
- No, but I would like to be. A classic M1911a for starters. :) And if you don't know what that is, do NOT ask me! Heh. (+5)
6. I support school voucher programs.
- Yes! (+5)
7. I oppose condom distribution in public schools.
- I don't have kids, so it's kinda tough. Right now I'll go with Dean and Rose: I object if they do so without the parent's consent. (+5)
8. I oppose bilingual education.
- In the sense of separate education for non-English speakers, yes. (+5)
9. I oppose gay marriage.
- I oppose the terrible judicial method used to achieve the end. I do not oppose the end, although I think a couple of critics have points worth considering.
10. I want Social Security privatized.
- We need to do something; I'm not doctrinaire on how to fix it.
11. I believe racial profiling at airports is common sense.
- Yep. Just as long as we don't concentrate soley on race/ethnicity. (+5)
12. I shop at Wal-Mart.
- Uh, no, but not for any ethical reason. I just think they're tacky. I go to Bigg's and Meijers instead. No clever remarks, please. :)
13. I enjoy talk radio.
- Ignore it competely. Totally off the grid.
14. I am annoyed when news editors substitute the phrase "undocumented person" for "illegal alien."
- Yes! (+5)
15. I do not believe the phrase "a chink in the armor" is offensive.
- No. I mean Yes. Are you kidding me!? (+5)
16. I eat meat.
- Yep. Bacon cheeseburgers; YUM! (+5)
17. I believe O.J. Simpson was guilty.
- Very much so. (+5)
18. I cheered when I learned that Saddam Hussein had been captured.
- No, but I tend to be rather analytical about announcements like that. Such captures are just a single step in a long, long journey.
19. I cry when I hear "Proud to be an American" by Lee Greenwood.
- Lord, no! Embarassed, rather; I find the song to be overblown. I prefer Toby Keith's The Angry American, or (by preference) Alan Jackson's Where Were You? (When the World Stopped Turning), a gentle, compassionate work. If you want to know what gets tears in my eyes: Whitney Houston's Star Spangled Banner from Super Bowl XXV.
20. I don't believe the New York Times.
- That depends... :)
Final score: 55%. Sorry, Michelle... Do you still love me?
